Clarence Walls, a name that needs to be remembered. Playing out of North Iberville this 5’7, 130-pound athlete uses his speed to dispatch both offense and defenses. In the Gridiron Football Junior High Bowl game, he tallied 17 yards on 2 catches averaging 8.5 yards a catch. His performance on defense consisted of 1 tackle and 1 pass break up. While being a tremendous athlete he boasts a 3.5 GPA. I had the opportunity to talk to this young athlete.
